“We are proud to bring growth to Loris and Horry County. We believe a local talent and local job pool is essential.

My American customers can’t wait to see shiny, high quality tanks coming from South Carolina to their breweries. Built by proud, trained local high-­-skilled fabricators,” --Christian Riemerschmid von der Heide, Chief Operating Officer, Accent Stainless Steel.

“The final factor was the efforts by Sandy Davis and her team from the Myrtle Beach Economic Development Office. We are a fourth-generation family-ownedbusiness and they treated us like family throughout the process. They have been an invaluable resource way beyond the selection process but through every step of the way – making introductions, opening doors, and generously giving advice. They made the difference.” --Jeff Mishkin, Worksman’s Cycles CEO | VIDEO

“While visiting family and traveling back and forth from New York to South Carolina, I envisioned coming back home to my family and giving my children a better way of life, by relocating to the south.

"We could not be happier with the results achieved working with the Myrtle Beach Regional Economic Development Corporation regarding our recent expansion and new technology announcement. From the planning to eventual press conference results, their efforts were flawless. The MBREDC quickly grasped our business needs as a local, yet growing company from Conway, S.C. They went above and beyond!" --Brian O'Neil, Chief Business Development Officer at B3C Fuel Solutions

“One reason we decided to expand our facility in Conway and invest in Horry County is because of the quality of the workforce here. We have been pleased with the quality of the employees and low turnover rates in Horry County. In addition to that, we were impressed with the incentive package we were offered by the MBREDC. These two things helped make the decision to expand here possible.” --Debbie Sand, Canfor Director of Human Resources

“The decision to expand again here was unanimous. We have made these two investments to the Conway facility because we believe this is a good place to do business and we are committed to the community. This latest expansion allows us to do more in-house and expand our operation more efficiently.” --Dodd Smith, Metglas, Inc., President

“Our continued growth and our entry into the healthcare industry were all factors in our decision to choose Myrtle Beach for our new expansion.
